Become a Peer Mentee

Become A Peer Mentee

Transitioning from high school to college can be intimidating, but the SAS Honors Peer Mentors are here to help make the journey an informed and smooth experience.

Peer Mentors are made up of upper-class honors students who are eager to give you advice on all things Rutgers and honors. They are happy to chat with you in person, by phone, text, or social media. Don't be surprised if your Peer Mentor offers to show you how to use the bus system, brings you to one of their student organization meetings, or invites you to share how your first week of classes went over coffee; it's just what our Peer Mentors do!

In order to be matched to a Peer Mentor, incoming first-year Honors Program students from the Class of 2023 can expect to receive information about our application in spring 2019. Once all applications have been received at the end of May, our Peer Mentor Programming Board will match each incoming student to a current Honors Program student based on major/academic interests, career goals, resident/commuter status, and/or extracurricular interests. Your Peer Mentor will then contact you by e-mail with an introduction and information about how to stay in touch.

Mentors and Mentees have an opportunity to meet at the Peer Mentor/Mentee Summer Kick-off on Sunday, June 23, 2019.

Throughout the academic year, Mentors and Mentees are invited to continue to attend other fun Peer Mentor events.
